30 days in New York City Itinerary

Writer Pearl Buck once called New York City “a place apart,” and this giant urban center remains unlike any other in the world.

We've included these beaches for you: Ocean Grove Beach and Long Beach. Visiting Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge and Hamilton Grange National Memorial will get you outdoors. Change things up with these side-trips from New York City: Bronx Zoo (in Bronx), Ponquogue Beach (in Hampton Bays) and Fire Island National Seashore (in Patchogue). There's still lots to do: shop like a local with Fifth Avenue, admire the masterpieces at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), grab your bike and head to East River Waterfront Esplanade, and learn more about the world around you at American Museum of Natural History.
